I have no idea what 'any squares a Knight usually passes through' means. Being a leaper, a Knight does not pass through any square, but teleports directly to its final destination.

If you have a path in mind through which a Knight reaches its desitination, you should specify the path, as this is not standard. Does a Knight move in an L shape, and if so, does the long leg or short leg of the L come first? Or does it move like the Mao or Moa? Or is it a multipath Moo? Or does it move 3 forward and then back diagonally?

Also the phrase 'can only jump if it moves like a Knight'  is ambiguous. Does it mean the piece is a hopper?
